Gimme A Sign: The Bikeway Closeth

Upon entering the Ballona Creek Bikeway this morning I was surprised to find signage being installed indicating its impending closure for construction — and just in time for summer! — until February 2009.

So just a heads-up to anyone who rides this route: the bikeway will be purportedly off limits between Duquesne Street in Culver City and its northern terminus by McManus Park at National Boulevard.

I don’t go north of there anyway because of all the bumps in the path — hopefully they are fixing those! I wish I knew who to contact to find out. I thought I say a sign at the Duquesne entrance that the entrance would be closed until Feb 2009 — is this not what the sign said, or am I going nuts (the sign I saw was not the one pictured, but it’s similar).

Also, what’s with that little foot gate in the Duquesne exit/entrance. It seems a bit dangerous, but since I know it’s there it’s mostly just really annoying.

Melon, you did see the sign you think you saw. I saw it too after I got to the bottom of the entrance ramp from Duquesne. It’s definitely confusing when the sign I photographed says Duquesne is the only exit, and then the other one says Duquesne exit closed until Feb. 2009.
